Question 1

Is Send Help woke?

Accepted Answer

Send Help has a woke score of 69/100, which means it is mixed, with noticeable woke elements. Two coworkers crash on a deserted island: the awkward but survival-savvy female employee (Rachel McAdams) and her chauvinistic nepo-baby boss (Dylan O’Brien). She gets revenge on the “boys’ club” that overlooked her at work while he’s helpless without her Survivor-honed skills. Sam Raimi pitched it explicitly as a woman screwed over by corporate patriarchy whose roles reverse in crisis. The power flip and misogyny satire drive the whole dark-comedy horror ride—hard to miss even with the gore and laughs. Not pure propaganda, but the gender and workplace identity stuff is front and center.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

The biggest factors in our score are Identity-driven story themes, Institutional / cultural critique, Political / ideological dialogue. Two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island, the only survivors of a plane crash. On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it's a battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.
